Again, like I said, I have a very rudimentary understanding of this attack. I don't really know the specifics or its viability. This is something that Anonymint has been talking about on this forum recently under his alt account "anunymint".

This was the same guy, you might like to know, who insisted Bitcoin was fundamentally flawed and doomed when I first joined this forum back in early 2013.
